Bøker av Julian Stannard

These are not common-or-garden poems. They don't behave like poems at all. They sing, they dance, they make the reader wince, they get under the skin. Reading New And Selected Poems is like going to a smoke-filled jazz club, or the back streets of a beautiful crazy Italian city. By the time you get home you'll never be the same.

Please Don't Bomb the Ghost of my Brother is haunted by loss yet these poems defy despair by stepping emphatically into the liberating realm of strangeness.
